“Lily Donaldson, dripping in gold Bulgari jewelry, said she has no room left for artworks. ‘What, with my eight Picassos and a couple of Man Rays, where does one put it, under the bed?’” —WWD.

not all picassos cost millions of dollars. My boss bought one last year for *only* around 45 grand. Picasso did thousands of paintings in his life, so a lot of his work isn't that rare, thus making the pieces not soooo expensive and actually kindof affordable to people who want original artwork.

She was being sarcastic right?
I wouldn't be surprised if she had eight Picasso's. They're probably bad Picassos or unimportant Picassos (Picasso had a huge output so both are possible). All that phrase makes me think is that she has bad taste in artwork. With contemporary art as good as it is today, why would anyone bother with overpriced modern art?
